Book Description
"In the history of sediment transport research within hydrological sciences, there perhaps been no greater paradigm shift than that which has been provided by the identification of flocculation as a dominant mechanism operating within, and mediating, cohesive suspended sediment transport. Flocculation (the process of aggregating smaller particles together to form larger particles) significantly modifies the hydrodynamic properties of the sediment by altering their effective size, shape, density, porosity and composition. Such changes have a dramatic impact on the downward flux of sediments and as such influence the transportation and fate of suspended sediments"--Abstract.
